I'm no expert, but have fished it a coupla times. The campground at CCC
Bridge is a great place to stay if you're OK with no electricity. It
costs a
tenner a nite, IIRC, and you may be sharing it with a few hunters (I
don't
know the hunting seasons), but the morning views on the small visible
stretch of river are wonderful.

Within the Michigan season, consider camping at the campground on the
upper reaches of the Manistee or the Guides Rest campground on the
AuSable. CCC always seemed too crowded and too much of the teen age
mess unless you're into that. Camping at CCC makes sense in the
offseason since the water from CCC upstream to M-72 is special reg and
therefore open to fishing year round.


We were planning to stay either at...
Upper Manistee River State Forest Campground
or...
Goose Creek State Forest Trail Camp
It will be tent camping and nothing that plugs in.
and if I can roll out of the tent and catch a few
while my coffee is boiling that would be perfect.

Any input on either site?
